Exact solutions of diffusion-convection equations (Q948838)

In this review article the author presents a brief summary of known exact solutions of variable coefficient \((1+1)\)-dimensional diffusion-convection equations of the form \(f(x)u_t=(g(x)A(u)u_x)_x+h(x)B(u)u_x\) with arbitrary smooth functions of their variables, where \(f(x)g(x)A(u)\neq 0.\) Most of the listed solutions have been obtained with the aid of symmetry methods, such as reduction with respect to Lie and non-Lie symmetries, separation of variables, equivalence transformations. In the Appendix the complete results of group classification of this equation with respect to the extended group of equivalence transformations, are presented.
